I have a main form with 2 subforms. I have a checkbox on subform1 "frmExpediteS" that when checked i would like the Value in Feild "PO" of this subform to appear in "PO" in a second subform2 "frmExpediteDetails". I think I need an after Update event but not sure of the code to use.
Can someone please steer me in the right direction.
Tks
I would like to have a message box popup 30 minutes after a user checks a checkbox (check5). I am thinking I would have to have VBA code to run on the After Update property of the checkbox but not sure what the correct code would be.
View 3 Replies View Relatedi have a checkbox that i change the value of in my code by saying checkbox.value = true. the value changes but doesn't update visually until the mouse passes over the box. i have 5 boxes and 3 of them are fine, but two of them act this way. all the code is the same. i tried moving the checkbox. value = true statement to different line, tried adding a function that would be called to perform this action, and i tried DoEvents before changing the checkbox value. why is this happening and what can i do to fix it?

I have a Mainform with a subform linked to a table.
Within the subform i have a number of individual checkboxes and a field [Year].
One checkbox, [checkboxIssue] i have wanted to link two update queries in order
to update the field[Year] with the contents of a [textboxValue] on the Mainform,
depending on the state of [checkboxIssue].
I have run both queries manually, one after the other and the table was updated perfectly.
The problem is that when i link it to the click_Event of [checkboxIssue]
in the subform i get zero updates.
Linked to the Dirty_Event of the subform i get good results for all except the last ammended
record and zero results if ammending only one record.
I am a relative Newbie and have learned a great deal from this forums expertise.
Can anyone enlighten me to what i think will be my very basic error.
Basic or not i have driven myself mad trying to solve it..:-(
Dear all:
I have an access database with about 200 records. Names, ID's, addresses, a checkbox called "apply_to_all" and a date field which is selected via a combobox.This combo box is called "date_started", and a textbox called "prefix". This textbox has a default value of "Given on".
What I am trying to accomplish is: A date is selected from the combobox, then a checkbox("apply_date_to_all") is checked and this date is applied to ALL records in the database along with the default value that is in the prefix textbox. (Concantenattion?)
I assume this can be accomplished by some soft of sql statement?
An help is greatly appreciated.
thanking in advance,

What is the correct way to update the checkbox value in a table with an IF statement?
Desired Result:
Check if UserID is not 'ME'
If it is not 'ME' then uncheck the box in the table.
My current faulty code below:
NoUser = DLookup("[UserID]", "[TABLE]") If NoUser <> "ME" Then
[AllowLogin] = 0
End If
I'm attempting to create a form that has a checkbox in addition to some numeric entry fields. The checkbox is True/False and it is a tab stop on the form.
1. Is there a keystroke that can change from True to False (check/uncheck), or is a mouse click required? This form will be used extensively to update some records and a keystroke would be handy instead of having to move from the keyboard to click a mouse button.
2. After update, if the checkbox is True, then a numeric adjustment must be made to a calculated value. If False, then do nothing. Does a checkbox have a numeric value that can be used in an equation? Name of the checkbox is "Option".
These seem fundamental needs, but not obvious to me from using Access Help.
Later on in the same evening . . .
Oh, never mind. Of course "Space Bar" toggles checkboxes. And I discovered by just writing the equation that True = -1 and False = 0. So the name "Option" can be used in an equation just like any other number. Too obvious.
How do you update table with unbound checkbox? I'd like to add basic yes/no, true/false on update. Currently I'm using a workaround like this
Code:
If Me.chkInkt = True Then
status = "true"
Else
status = "false"
End If
Which is ok if there's one of these, but sometimes I have more...
Is it possible in Access 2010 to have an after update that if a criteria text is met, then a checkbox with the text "completed" appears next to it?
Private Sub Text45 ()
If Me.Text45 = "Test" THEN ...
I have the following module which displays the backcolor of a checkbox label if it is true or false
Private Sub FormatLabel(chk As Control)
With chk.Controls(0)
If chk Then
.BackColor = vbYellow
.BackStyle = 1
.ForeColor = vbRed
[Code] .....
Which works great! But I cannot figure out how to make it work in the control AfterUpdate Event. I tried using it in the current control's (checkbox) after update event
Dim itm As Control
If itm.ControlType = 106 Then FormatLabel itm
but nothing happens (no change, no error message).
I have tried creating a new module:
Public Sub CheckBoxFormat(chk As Control)
If chk = -1 Then
chk.BackColor = vbYellow
chk.BackStyle = 1
chk.ForeColor = vbRed
Else
chk.BackColor = vbWhite
chk.ForeColor = vbBlack
End If
End Sub
But when I try to call it in the AfterUpdate event for the particular checkbox
Private Sub CheckBoxA_AfterUpdate()
Dim itm As Control
If itm.ControlType = 106 Then
CheckBoxFormat itm
End Sub
I get the error message "Expected Variable or Procedure not module"
So, (1) is my module all wrong or (2) am I calling it incorrectly or (3) wrong on both items?
Hey Guys,
I'm looking to create a "Same As Billing Address" check box that would automatically udpate the address in an order to reflect the customer's billing address.
I understand how to sync a combo box to an option group ( -- great article by the way)
I Guess what I'm looking to do is:
1. Sync a "Same As" Checkbox to multiple text boxes in the form (Unit, StreetAddress, City, Province, Postal) such that these fields are UPDATED (writen to) with the same information as the billing address
2. [U]IF the "Same As" Option is selected, I need the updated fields to lock, allowing no further update... but must by unlocked if the "Same As" option is NOT selected.
Please help me out with this one guys.. I really need it.
My subform consists of a list of tasks that are waiting to be verified. in order to verify tasks, the user scrolls through the list of tasks and checks a checkbox (discrepancyverified) on each record they wish to verify. After the user has finished checking all the records they wish to verify, they click a verify button on the main form which should then go back through each record and update the verifieddate value of any that are checked to today.
This is what I have so far:
Code:
Private Sub Command19_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim ctl As Control
Dim varItem As Variant

Hi,
In Form of the MS Access.
How can I make the form cannot close if the field is Null when I click the close button?
frm1:
Field Name: Date, Id, Name
The 3 field names are required to input.
Before Update Event:
if (isnull(date)) then
date.setforce
end if
if (isnull(id)) then
id.setforce
end if
if (isnull(name)) then
name.setforce
end if
It works well when I go to next record (suppose I miss one field)
However, It doesn't work when I click the close button, the form is closed.
I want the form cannot close until fill out all fields. It cannot go to the missing fields.
I have a question, when I click close button, Must the form be closed even though I set up the field to be "setforce"?
Thanks.
I have a Product(Table) and a Quotation(Table) linked with one to many Relation.A Query based on these Tables
and a Quotation(Form) which I use a ComboBox(ARTNO) which i have an event at AfterUpdate.The aim is to
every time I choose a Product from the ComboBox(ARTNO) automatically to display the Box(PRICE) of the Product.
Here is the AfterUptade Code:
Private Sub ARTNO_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Err_ARTNO_AfterUpdate
Dim strFilter As String
' Evaluate filter before it's passed to DLookup function.
strFilter = "ARTNO = " & Me!ARTNO
' Look up product's PRICE and assign it to PRICE control.
Me!PRICE = DLookup("PRICE", "PRODUCTS", strFilter)
Exit_ARTNO_AfterUpdate:
Exit Sub
Err_ARTNO_AfterUpdate:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_ARTNO_AfterUpdate
End Sub
The problem is that in the Box(PRICE) i have always the same price, in any product selection.
Does anybody knows why?Please help
Hello All,
I have a question.
Can I have in Access 2000, in the After update event a code like this:
DoCmd.RunSQL ("Update Table1" & _
"SET [Table1].Field1 = (SELECT DISTINCT [Table2].[Field1] FROM [Table2] " & _
"WHERE [Table2].[Field22]= "& Me.textbox & " And (Left(Field1,5)= "00000" ")")
?
I have 2 tables. Based on what the user enter in "Textbox" I want to query Table 2 (with conditions) and to update Table 1 with the value I found in the Select statement. (Table 1.field1 = table 2.field1)
Thank you.
Hi there all i need to set a field on my form not to accept any updates to what ever was typed in the field before it was saved the first time kinda like After update event = no updates :confused:

I need to trigger an event for when a text box is updated.
However, I cantuse on_update() because the text box is updated by dlookup (and on some of my other ones by vb code), and on_update() only works when the user physically enters a value.
Which event should I use. If there isnt one, is there a work around?
I need an event for when a text box is updated. Not by the user typing into it, but when VB code or something like Dsum() changes its value automatically.
What event can I use? Does one exist for this?
Hi
I have form with a series of text boxes in which users can edit the data that is populated in them. For one of the text boxes I want to add an after update event, so that if the user changes the value in the text box, a message window appears telling them to click on the submit button at the bottom of the form.
Does anyone know the code that I should use to make this message appear when the value in the text box is changed?
Thanks to S.baxter I have used some code to loop through a recordset and select each record in turn in a form that uses the recordset as the Rowsource of a combo box. However, there is an After_Update event attached to the combo box which is not being triggered.
MS Help says :- "If you move to another record or save the record, the form's BeforeUpdate and AfterUpdate events do occur." I have tried this but can't get it to work. Would it work if I could move the focus to another control on the form and if so how do I do that?
Thanks

I have a DB with TblInspector and TblViolation Data. Here is what I am having trouble with. On my form I have a combo box named Inspector and a text box named ARNumber. What I would like to have happen is anytime that I select John Doe from combo box Inspector it pulls his ARNumber from TblInspector and saves his ARNumber in TblViolation Data.
I have fields Inspector and ARNumber in my TblViolation Data. I am pretty sure it is an After Update Event. I just don't know what code to put where. This is what I currently have on my combo box. It pulls the number and displays it in the text box on the form but does not save it to the table.
Private Sub Inspector_AfterUpdate()
Me.ARNumber = Me.Inspector.Column(1)
End Sub
I have a invoice system I have created in Access and it did used to work perfectly and then maybe an update Who knows stopped the system working.
I have an customer order screen that has customer details and then a subform within the same form this takes a total of items & costs for this order and then it entered it into the customers table from the order_Details table using me.Order_total = Order_Total.
I know this is bad design but I store it because once the order is places I need the total to be static because the invoice has been sent and so if someone changes the order then the total owed doesn't change.
I then have a reconcile form which is on a datasheet form straight from the tab;e so it is editable which has a checkbox that then once ticked copies the total from the Order_Total in the table to the reconciled field in the same table and then I use a report to show who owes me still.
So I have made a Select query from the Orders table & Order_Details table and used a Group by Order number (Which is the link between the 2 tables) this shows correctly but now not editable because of the rules So I am trying to add an editable checkbox on the same form.
I tried to use a dlookup makes all of the boxes either ticked or not. I've been looking at Recordsets but I'm unsure if this is what I need or not really
So really I just need to see if I should be putting the Total from the Subform into the mainform and then entering it into the table (Like previously) using a calculated unbound field and then using the Afterupdate event to insert the data into the table. but for some reason it just wont work.
I can get the OnClick to work but then as soon as i go to the next record for some reason it then resorts to 0.00 but then the table shows correctly which ever record the form is working on.
Or should I be using the new query based idea to create the reconcile form and if this is the best way I just don't now where to start on how to get a multiple table query that I can then add a reconciled checkbox which then copies the Order_Total from the table to the Paymet_Recieved field.
I have a form which displays information in the footer until the use has accomplished some tasks. Once I verify that all is well I allow the user to change the fields in the footer. I want to verify that the proper changes were made but the BeforeUpdate event does not fire until the form is closed.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I use access database for a website. I would like to run a trigger in a specific table when updating a record.
Is it possible to create table level triggers in Access at all, if it is, pls. give me short direction. (as far as I know there are lot of events, but this events occur only in native access application only, and can not be handled outside of access, am I right?)
thanks a lot
